The 3 1/2-in. stonewashed blade is hollow-ground for excellent slicing capabilities with a flat-ground spanto tip for strong piercing. A machined G-10 front scale and a heavily textured backspacer add to the Thermite's good looks. On the practical side, the back handle is stainless steel with a frame lock and lockbar stabilizer. For easy opening, the Thermite is SpeedSafe-equipped and can be accessed with the ambidextrous flipper or thumbstud. It comes equipped with Kershaw s Quad-Carry/deep-carry pocketclip.
